I would be on a boat now with a wife and baby, if my job wasn't so far away from the water... I lived at watergate marina in clear lake for a while on a 36' aft cabin carver with my uncle. What marina are you looking into?

I am thinking of doing something crazyy,, and wanted some advice before I do so.
Recently I found a realy good deal on a 36' sport fishing boat, It has a large cabin,(2 staterooms) and a salon. It is in very good condition, just remodeled with paint inside and out, interior, and recent engine maintainence. I know in alot of cases you dont make money on a boat,, but if I got rid of my apt in the city,, and just crashed on the boat during the week. (marina is 15mins from work), I would save about $1000 a month that could go towards the boat. any thoughts?
The slip is going to be about $250 a month, and the payment on the boat with a good down, and a 5yr note is close to $500.

5 yrs ago I was looking into this type of move in Florida, and I remember there was some sort of "live-aboard" tax, or a permit to live-aboard. I didn't dig to deeply because a work change brought me an the wife to wonderful Kentucky
shouldn't be a problem for spk1 - he said he had an apartment or something that he was going to keep - non issue.
